The answer: no. I would have much rather seen the queries to find recorded programs just have a new check to see if the delete field was set. Instant response as before, no playing a program when you just deleted it (this does happen, it happened to my other user last night, I can reproduce it with CVS as of 15 minutes ago). Then you just kickoff a thread in the backend to gather all deleted programs and delete them (ensuring that something will be deleted eventually). No fancy mutex to keep thing synchronous, the new threat is having a show that failed to delete not reappear which could be easily fixed by having the delete thread disable the delete field if deletion failed. -- Anduin Withers
